The TGM3 gene's promoter region is key for skin and hair cell function and may aid gene therapy.

Scientists turned mouse stem cells into skin cells that can grow into skin layers and structures.

Epidermal stem cells have various roles in skin beyond just maintenance, including forming specialized structures and aiding in skin repair and regeneration.

The document concludes that skin stem cells are important for hair growth and wound healing, and could be used in regenerative medicine.

Keratin from human hair shows promise for medical uses like wound healing and tissue engineering.

Sex hormones affect hair and feather growth and may help manage alopecia and hormone-dependent cancers.

Two specific SNPs in the TRPS1 gene cause excessive hair growth by altering the protein's structure.

hiPSCs can help regenerate hair follicles and treat hair loss.

Adult mouse skin contains stem cells that can create new hair, skin, and oil glands.

The study found average numbers for different types of hair follicles in the scalp and observed differences between men and women, suggesting reasons for more common hair shedding in women.

Human nails and hair follicles have similar gene activity, especially in the cells that contribute to their growth and development.

The document concludes that hair follicles have a complex environment and our understanding of it is growing, but there are limitations when applying animal study findings to humans.

Hair repigmentation can indicate malignancy and should be investigated.

The book "Hair Follicle Regeneration" discusses the potential of regenerating human hair follicles or activating dormant ones as a possible cure for baldness, and the promising role of new technologies like 3D printing in this field.

PRC1 influences skin stem cell development by both turning genes on and off, affecting hair growth and skin cell types.

VEGFR-2 is active in hair follicles, sebaceous glands, sweat glands, and skin on the human scalp.

A deficiency in the TTC7A gene causes immune problems, gut issues, and hair loss.

Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.

The skin and thymus develop similarly to protect and support immunity.

Foxn1 gene regulation is crucial for thymus development but not for hair growth.

Engineering the cell microenvironment is key for advancing tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Disulfide bonds make keratin in hair stronger and tougher.

Macrophage iron release is crucial for hair growth and wound healing.

Prolactin may be important for skin growth and immune function.

MED1 affects skin wound healing differently in young and old mice.

High-dose radiation speeds up aging in skin stem cells.

In vivo lineage labelling is better than in vitro methods for identifying and understanding stem cells.

Retinoic acid helps change skin cells and is important for skin development and hair growth.

A woman had a unique skin growth with hair follicle, oil glands, fat cells, spindle cells, and nerve fibers.

The symposium concluded that environmental factors significantly contribute to skin aging.
